FCC Adopts USAC Reform NPRM

Last month, we summarized the FCC's draft Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, Maximizing Efficiencies in Universal Service Administration (WC Docket No. 26-173). The FCC adopted that item on August 6, 2026, and released the final version on August 7. The bulk of what we wrote last month still holds. This update covers what changed between the draft and the adopted item.
